(1) Core Price reflects organic average price change, net of rollbacks and excludes fuel surcharges, across the Company’s customer base. (2) Canadian volume decline reflects impact of Calgary landfill closure to MSW and three municipal contracts completed in 2012. This resulted in a negative volume impact of (630

bps) to total Canadian volume and (270 bps) to consolidated company volume. Adjusted volume is 3.8% in Canada and 4.2% to consolidated company volume. (3) OCC average price based on RISI pricing weighted to BIN regions Q1/13 = $99/ton , Q2/13 = $104/ton, Q3/13 = $112/ton.

Amortization

• Intangible and capital amortization as a percentage of revenue increased 60 bps QoQ to 15% • Due to $4.1MM charge recorded for the revocation of an operating permit for a redundant transfer station

• Purchase of Compressed natural gas (“CNG”) collection vehicles also contributed to higher amortization as CNG trucks are more costly than diesel trucks • Expect amortization to be approximately 14.6% of revenues in 2013

Recycled Fiber Sensitivity

• Revenues and earnings are impacted by changes in recycled commodity prices, which principally include old corrugated cardboard (“OCC”) and other paper fibers, including newsprint, sorted office paper and mixed paper

• Other commodities we receive include wood, plastics, aluminum and metals

• Our results of operations may be affected by changing prices or market requirements for recyclable materials. The resale and purchase price of, and market demand for, recyclable materials can be volatile due to changes in economic conditions and numerous other factors beyond our control

• These fluctuations may affect our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows

• Based on current volumes, a $10 change in the price of an average basket of commodities results in an ~$8.0 million change to revenues and an approximately $0.04 change to net income per share on an annual basis

• Our outlook provided for 2013 assumes an average price per ton for OCC of $106.00, which is

equal to the 2012 average price per ton based on our market weighting of the RISI index

25

FX Sensitivity

• We have provided our guidance assuming $0.97 cents U.S. for each Canadian dollar

• If the U.S. dollar strengthens one cent our reported revenues will decline by approximately $7,800

• EBITDA(A) is similarly impacted by approximately $2,500, assuming a strengthening U.S. dollar

• The impact on net income for a similar change in FX rate, results in an approximately $700 decline

• Should the U.S. dollar weaken by one cent, our reported results will improve by similar amounts

Non-GAAP Disclosure

(A) All references to “Adjusted EBITDA” in this document are to revenues less operating expense and SG&A, excluding certain non-operating or non-recurring SG&A expense, on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income or loss. Adjusted EBITDA excludes some or all of the following: certain SG&A expenses, restructuring expenses, goodwill impairment, amortization, net gain or loss on sale of capital assets, interest on long-term debt, net foreign exchange gain or loss, net gain or loss on financial instruments, loss on extinguishment of debt, other expenses, income taxes and income or loss from equity accounted investee. Adjusted EBITDA is a term used by us that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of our operating profitability, and by definition, excludes certain items as detailed above. These items are viewed by us as either non-cash (in the case of goodwill impairment, amortization, net gain or loss on financial instruments, net foreign exchange gain or loss, deferred income taxes and net income or loss from equity accounted investee) or non-operating (in the case of certain SG&A expenses, restructuring expenses, net gain or loss on sale of capital assets, interest on long-term debt, loss on extinguishment of debt, other expenses, and current income taxes). Adjusted EBITDA is a useful financial and operating metric for us, our Board of Directors, and our lenders, as it represents a starting point in the determination of free cash flow(B). The underlying reasons for the exclusion of each item are as follows: Certain SG&A expenses – SG&A expense includes certain non-operating or non-recurring expenses. Non-operating expenses include transaction costs or recoveries related to acquisitions, fair value adjustments attributable to stock options and restricted share expense. Non-recurring expenses include certain equity based compensation, payments made to senior management on their departure, severance and other non-recurring expenses from time-to-time. These expenses are not considered an expense indicative of continuing operations. Certain SG&A costs represent a different class of expense than those included in adjusted EBITDA. Restructuring expenses – restructuring expenses includes costs to integrate various operating locations with our own, exiting certain property and building and office leases, employee severance and employee relocation costs incurred in connection with our acquisition of WSI. These expenses are not considered an expense indicative of continuing operations. Accordingly, restructuring expenses represent a different class of expense than those included in adjusted EBITDA. Goodwill impairment – as a non-cash item goodwill impairment has no impact on the determination of free cash flow(B). Amortization – as a non-cash item amortization has no impact on the determination of free cash flow(B). Net gain or loss on sale of capital assets – proceeds from the sale of capital assets are either reinvested in additional or replacement capital assets or used to repay revolving credit facility borrowings. Interest on long-term debt – interest on long-term debt is a function of our debt/equity mix and interest rates; as such, it reflects our treasury/financing activities and represents a different class of expense than those included in adjusted EBITDA. Net foreign exchange gain or loss – as non-cash items, foreign exchange gains or losses have no impact on the determination of free cash flow(B). Net gain or loss on financial instruments – as non-cash items, gains or losses on financial instruments have no impact on the determination of free cash flow(B). Loss on extinguishment of debt – loss on extinguishment of debt is a function of our debt financing; as such, it reflects our treasury/financing activities and represents a different class of expense than those included in adjusted EBITDA. Other expenses – other expenses typically represent amounts paid to certain management of acquired companies who are retained by us post acquisition and amounts paid to certain executives in respect of acquisitions successfully completed. These expenses are not considered an expense indicative of continuing operations. Accordingly, other expenses represent a different class of expense than those included in adjusted EBITDA. Income taxes – income taxes are a function of tax laws and rates and are affected by matters which are separate from our daily operations. Net income or loss from equity accounted investee – as a non-cash item, net income or loss from our equity accounted investee has no impact on the determination of free cash flow(B). All references to “Adjusted EBITA” in this document represent Adjusted EBITDA after deducting amortization of capital and landfill assets. All references to “Adjusted operating income or adjusted operating EBIT” in this document represent Adjusted EBITDA after adjusting for net gain or loss on the sale of capital assets and all amortization expense, including amortization expense recognized on the impairment of intangible assets. All references to “Adjusted net income” are to adjusted operating income after adjusting net gain or loss on financial instruments, loss on extinguishment of debt, other expenses and net income tax expense or recovery. Adjusted EBITA, Adjusted operating income or adjusted operating EBIT and Adjusted net income should not be construed as measures of income or of cash flows. Collectively, these terms do not have standardized meanings prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Each of these measures are important for investors and are used by management in the management of its business. Adjusted operating income or adjusted operating EBIT removes the impact of a company’s capital structure and its tax rates when comparing the results of companies within or across industry sectors. Management uses Adjusted operating EBIT as a measure of how its operations are performing and to focus attention on amortization and depreciation expense to drive higher returns on invested capital. In addition, Adjusted operating EBIT is used by management as a means to measure the performance of its operating locations and is a significant metric in the determination of compensation for certain employees. Adjusted EBITA accomplishes a similar comparative result as Adjusted operating EBIT, but further removes amortization attributable to intangible assets. Intangible assets are measured at fair value when we complete an acquisition and amortized over their estimated useful lives. We view capital and landfill asset amortization as a proxy for the amount of capital reinvestment required to continue operating our business steady state. We believe that the replacement of intangible assets is not required to continue our operations as the costs associated with continuing operations are already captured in operating or selling, general and administration expenses. Accordingly, we view Adjusted EBITA as a measure that eliminates the impact of a company’s acquisitive nature and permits a higher degree of comparability across companies within our industry or across different sectors from an operating performance perspective. Finally, Adjusted net income is a measure of our overall earnings and profits and is further used to calculate our net income per share. Adjusted net income reflects what we believe is our “operating” net income which excludes certain non-operating income or expenses. Adjusted net income is an important measure of a company’s ability to generate profit and earnings for its shareholders which is used to compare company performance both amongst and between industry sectors.

Non-GAAP Disclosure – continued

(B) We have adopted a measure called “free cash flow” to supplement net income or loss as a measure of our operating performance. Free cash flow is a term which does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, is prepared before dividends declared and shares repurchased, and may not be comparable to similar measures prepared by other companies. The purpose of presenting this non-GAAP measure is to provide disclosure similar to the disclosure provided by other U.S. publicly listed companies in our industry and to provide investors and analysts with an additional measure of our value and liquidity. We use this non-GAAP measure to assess our performance relative to other U.S. publicly listed companies and to assess the availability of funds for growth investment, debt repayment, share repurchases or dividend increases. All references to “free cash flow” in this document have the meaning set out in this note.
